Been an Atheist does not mean you have the knowledge or answers, Atheism is simply a lack of belief meaning Atheists can come from any background, culture or education system, there are no common ties other then a lack of belief in a God so asking a question and not getting an answer demonstrates little in your point here. In answer to your point, we can demonstrate particles of matter popping in and out of existence from nothing and measure the effect, so to the educated Atheists like myself we can actually show you, this Lab analogy is a poor attempt at mocking, the lab is simply a structure to perform the experiment in his case, it bares no link to the experiments and the controls it is under. The hard part of that question is defining nothing, when we say nothing we often mean the vacuum of space but even the vacuum of space is teaming with particles and energy, it is the fabric of spacetime where the word nothing really has no meaning so the whole premise of the theist argument about the universe coming out of nothing is flawed until you define nothing on a quantum level and also includes many theories where we did spring out of other multiverses etc which also render the nothing argument mute.

Also, use a little critical thinking. The boat was on the water for nearly a year. Every plant and animal not on the boat would have been dead and gone. Yet a dove shows up with a mature olive branch and they knew where the bird got it from? How could Noah possibly know that the ENTIRE world was flooded? Also, if the flood killed everyone in the world at the same time, why haven't we found a common layer of the bones of humans and animals all mixed together on the same layer around the world? Why didn't any other culture in the world notice the flood? No, the story falls apart with the most basic questions being asked. This is why it isn't a part of academic study. You are of course welcome to write a paper and present testable evidence. Just remember to leave out the magic parts because magic isn't real.

Like, how could they possibly have known that the ENTIRE world was covered in water? Doesn't it make more sense that their ENTIRE world was the immediate geographic location in which they lived flooded? Taking all the animals, that they owned, onto a boat to save them from a flood in an area prone to flooding makes more sense, yes? Given the physical world, the logistics of such a story are untenable. Do yourself a favor. Go look into why this story is parable and not factual. Doesn't mean you lose your faith.

When I was cutting sandstone blocks for the foundation of my house, I let all the spoil accumulate where I was doing the majority of the cutting. Some of the cutting required sawing and grinding. Other cuts were simply made by breaking with a hammer and chisel. Larger pieces were broken down with wedges. I simply rinsed the cut blocks off with a gardeb hose before placement. Afterwards I had a certain amount of cleanup to do and the larger pieces were loaded by hand. The sand and dust however where i was using the hose had formed a concretion and this was simply from the residue and water. No cement or mortar was anywhere near where I was cutting. This was an area a little over 10 ft x 10 ft and i had to bust up the layer of sedimentary rock that had formed under my feet. Over the course of a few weeks, the sand and powder had reformed into a layer of stone two to three inches thick on top of the grass. I would have used that as well if not for the grass sticking to it. Under the right conditions with repeated wetting and drying, sandstone will form pretty quick.

[@guygifford]

I grew up on the Beaches of Washington State, playing in the sands as the tides drained out, and flooded in. I have done many many experiments in my childhood, which "experts" don't do until they've already wasted many years of their lives, and then they do very narrow experiments in their artificial world of labs ... also fun, but missing the other things which happen when water floods, surges, and drains away. As one flies out of Albuquerque NM Westward bound in the morning from the airliner, one can look down, as ascending and see that all of the terrain below was created on a gigantic scale using the same water effects of quick flooding and erosion, creating the same features which I created many times as a child with buckets of water, or trapped dams of tide water on sandy beaches. When driving from Zion NP, UT to Las Vegas, again, the features are massive flood effects, and likewise from Las Vegas to Barstow, CA. Across the earth, at the base of dormant past volcanic mountains which reach the seas and oceans, one can see how the water has carved away their sides and even under-cut them, as evidence of how shortly ago these mountains were formed and eroded. There is much evidence of rock continuing to be formed in only decades, with man-made objects entombed in recent rock, such as the pick-axe. On a mining cave tour in South Dakota, we were told how stalactites took immense quantities of time to be formed, yet I could see on the wooden roof supports growing stalactites which were inches long, grown in just 50 years, rather than the millions of years the experts declare. Since cement requires only hours to become rock, is there any wonder that making rocks without human help takes only a few decades, instead of millions of years. Nearly everywhere across the world, human eyes can see the signs of catastrophic floods, greater than any regional flood that mankind has ever seen, and for centuries after Noah's flood, before the land became covered over in places by great forests, Noah's flood results were easily seeable by every human, but not so strangely, humans prefer to live where plants cover-over the obvious signs of Noah's flood, since plants provide food for humans, but barren rock does not. We, in our myopic, near-sighted, survival level mindset, don't naturally look at the "big-picture", until we reach adulthood, when we seek education, which is just brain-washing by Darwinian geologists, biologists, and social scientists. As a small child, I thought that everyone older knew more then me, which was true; but only after many decades of study, and far later than I should have been told, I learned that most teachers and professors had just average intelligence, and that what they taught as truth was being taught by them as a parrot repeats words that he has heard, or a monkey can be trained to repeat the many steps of basic brain-surgery which a human taught him, but neither has the knowledge and discernment needed to prove what the parrot says or recreate from nothing the advanced steps of brain-surgery. Likewise is true of most professors at universities, these days; they have nothing but "wrote" words mimicked from someone else, with the exceptions of those of the so called "hard" sciences such as mathematics and chemistry; this is not to say that the persons don't have the ability to use discernment, but rather that they don't as a rule.

Atheist scientists had originally said that humans broke off from ape-like creatures 2.5 million years ago. And that modern man evolved from that humanoid about 250,000 years ago. Well, even if we assume that humans have ony been on the planet for 10,000 years, when the alleged agricultural revolution started and being extremely conversative. Only doubling the world's population every 150 years (currently the population doubles about 40 years), *after 150 years there will be 4 people, after another 150 years there will be 8 people, after another 150 years there will be 16 people, and so on* This rate is actually very conservative. (we have records of a Russian woman in the 1700's who gave birth to over 60 children). I am taking into account *disease, plagues, famines, natural disasters, wars, and reverse birth to death ratio at various intervals.* Way before the discovery of penicillin in 1928. We have records of women from the 1400's giving birth to 10 children on average, let's say only 5 would make it to old age for the factors mentioned above, so 2 children per couple every 150 years for 10,000 years it is extremely generous. Calculating these numbers, there would have been averaging close to 100 doublings in 10,000 years. The world’s population would be whopping figure of the # 1 followed by 30 zeros. Check it out: 1,000000000000000000000000000000. You can still wipe out humanity a couple of times more and the numbers still don't add up. *Think about this in 1912 when the Titanic sank. The world's population was only a little over 1 billion people. Fast-forward 100 years and we are 8 billion. And we have had world war I and world War II in between (70 million people died). In 1945-46 around 140,000 people died as a result of the bombing of Hiroshima, Plus the worst influenza plague the world has ever seen, which happened 1918 (50 million people die)* Still In the last 100 years alone we can see a population growth of 8 times its numbers. *Now, let's look at this other also very conservative math:* If we start about 4,500 years ago (time of Noah's flood, only 8 people survived). After about 30 doublings, which is about 4,500 years, the world's population would have reached about 8 billion people (4,500 years ÷ 150 years in between births = 30 doublings // 8 exponentially doubled 30 times = 8,589,934,592 people).

Geomorphology differs from rock geology (see diagenesis). Many geomorphological events occur instantaneously or nearly so, allowing humans to observe and measure these changes in a much shorter time frame than a lifetime. This is evident both on land-through phenomena like floods, landslides, debris flows, beach erosion, and sedimentation patterns-and underwater, such as in the case of turbidites. In desert environments, the impact is even more pronounced: rare rain events and storms can rapidly alter the Earth's surface. I'm not sure what this man learned during his geological training. A sedimentary rock such as a sandstone or a limestone might include rapid depositional events, but all the same, it takes millions of years for a sedimentary deposit to become a sedimentary rock.

2:50 Q. Why didn’t the consequences of one volcanic eruption change geological principles? A. because it was one eruption. Volcanology and geology are well understood.

This is nonsense and would have to break the laws of physics. The heat generated would vaporise all water then go on to melt the earth’s crust.

It’s strange how these “Drs” and their following think they have a “gotcha” while at the same time they ignore the fact that the Bible isn’t even translated correctly from Hebrew and Greek, the meaning changing radically in many instances. Yet to them, one event created a similar looking result (because that will corrode and compress quickly, erasing it) whose results are understood supposedly negates all the rest as if we don’t know why it doesn’t. Even from a religious view the fact that these Jesus freaks do all this and try to diminish natural processes to a design demeans the idea of a devine creator, turning a god into a kid playing with plasticine, instead of a complex, creative mind that works one idea that cascades into this infinite variety we call the universe.

[@timboslice980]

Yeah im a catholic and i take it to be a much more localized flood. It’s def not a worldwide flood, the evidence you provided completely refutes it. Also we wouldnt just find a few geological anomalies, the whole planet should show evidence for this. Now arguments from silence aren’t usually good but in this case, the evidence should be overwhelming in favor of a global flood if it did happen. It would be literally impossible to hide the evidence for it happening, whereever humans explore, they should see it. I think for me, the biggest gap in the evidence is the runoff…. Imagine that much debris from literally the surface of the planet, washing into the oceans and there being no trace of it. As for a local flood concept, the area of turkey where this happened in scripture is right in the fertile crescent and was known to be prone to earthquakes, mudslides, and evidence for this is at multiple archaeological sites like gobekli tepe, carahan tepe, and others. I feel like biblical literalism is kind of silly. Even the church fathers knew the day night cycle came from the sun so it being created on the third day is obvious poetic language. You have 3 days of creation and then 3 days of adornment. It’s meant to poetically represent god creating the universe but not meant to be a historical account of a catastrophic event that wouldve caused extinction of nearly every species on the planet. The ark is likely a preservation of righteousness and all the good things in the world. The flood probably was a local catastrophe and if noah was a real person or a representative of a people that survived, the story is meant to teach us right and wrong, punishment and god’s power to do so. The catholic church is free to take this literal or allegorical but i think if youre going to engage the scientific facts you have to consider the flood being a local event.

A few issues... 1. Radiometric dating of rocks shattered by earthquakes would not be altered by the earthquakes. The earthquake would not change the elements from which the rocks are made. So radiometric dating cannot be used to date an earthquake event. 2. I can find no mention elsewhere of a boulder whose diameter is greater than 1 mile in diameter. I have to treat this as an unsubstantiated claim. Normally we would call something like that bedrock. 3. Multiple references are made to the radiometeic dating of sedimentary rock in this video, without an explanation of the specific types employed. But logically, sedimentary rocks cannot be dated radiometrically, for their sediments are necessarily older. If you are dating the cements that hold the sediments together, those minerals would have also been suspended in the flood waters, so unless there is a mechanism to reset the radioactive clocks of these minerals (such as the demonstrably false presumption from potassium-argon dating that newly solidified volcanic rocks contain no occluded argon), then they cannot be dated to the time when the sedimentary rocks were cemented together.

The problem is that all these global processes are so complex, that every worldview can get it's data out of it. So to get the true worldview we have to start with simple and very easy to find puzzle pieces to look in which direction it leads. And if you just start with truth first, atheism is out of the options already. Intelligence of ancients makes it concrete and population growth and life expectancy completly undermines an evolutionary worldview. But these 4 fields are very solid because we have testable, written records of eyewitnesses and unimaginable stuff already found and still waiting to be found in the earth of our ancestors. We can't just change the history.

Do you believe in Noah's Flood? You might have a case of Geological Myopia. - There, I fixed the title for you!

[@tzgardner]

When talking about Geological Myopia, I think of the following Bible passage . . . 2 Peter 3 "Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed."

Multiple floods have occurred over thousands of years, making the idea of a complete global flood seem nonsensical. People in ancient times were often separated by vast distances, sometimes even hundreds of miles. If a group found themselves on high ground and looked around to see nothing but water, they would naturally believe the entire world was flooded. Their understanding of the planet's size was limited, which influenced their perception of such events.

Excellent video and I likd in the comments how some people say this could have been aI local flood? Well God would have just told Noah and his family to go to higher ground. Or a different area. Also many different countries and native peope in all areas of the globe have a great flood story in there traditions and stories of eight people on a boat. Which is why I starting studying more into Gods word.

[@AnachronisticAffliction]

Why do I have to keep coming to creationists for real science??!? Thanks for the video, well done. Another explanation for the flood is told by all cultures over this plane.t Native Americans recall a time when a mountain of water several miles high was dragged over the continent. The patterns outlined in this video deal with that flood and not the deluge. The deluge appears to be an earlier event. This video's evidence was apparently caused by a close encounter with Venus(yes I know sounds insane, but people also believe a man in the sky caused a flood because humans messed up....). Factor in plasma physics and electromagnetism and you now have a scientific explanation for what happened that also lines up with history. Out of curiosity I notice that this channel ignores P waves and the electrical aspect of geology? A lot of the geological problems in this video disappear once you incorporate all this new science. Either way, thanks for the video. This stuff is amazing

It's mathematically impossible for 8 people to care for several thousand animals. They wouldn't have enough time to feed them, let alone clean up the poop and provide veterinary care. Does that really seem plausible that 2 of each animal swam across oceans to board the ark, then swim across the ocean again after the ark landed? Use your brain 😅

Consider this... If God is who he claims to be.

So, I’ve got a few questions. What about snow ice layers showing no flood. Dendrochronological sequences showing no flood. Trees older than are older than when the flood is mean to have been, that are still alive now. Coral reef growth rings which are older than the flood. Varves in lakes which have tens of thousands of years of summer and winter with no flood destroying these sediments. The pyramids, built by Noah and his descendants, or survived the flood? Why is there no absolute dating method that shows a catastrophic event at that time?

This is what I don't understand. How do geologists explain this massive sandstone deposit formed? The amount of water needed is astronomical.

They formed slowly over several hundred million years. No need for astronomical amounts of water, just regular sand deposition like we see now over a very long time.

Doug Vogt's interpretation vis a vis this aspect of the Nova event is strengthened by this evidence. Diehold Foundation, series 4; watch them all, your government has. Then consider S4488, and why they amended it a couple of weeks after Vogt contacted them to inform them of certain aspects they had overlooked. From that, you may surmise that he knew that they knew that he knew that they knew that he knew more than they did. RIP Doug Vogt

In the youtube channel Desert Drifter, the author explores deserted areas of what I suppose is Utah. He shows canyons deserted, arid places, canyons with capricious shapes and majestic cliffs towering over those eroded canyons. One feature that attracted my attention is a very thick layer, of several dozen foot in thickness, very homogeneous, apparently (seen from the video) made of sandstone. This thick layer (i insist, one layer in thickness) is on top of the cliffs, whereas below you can see many, many layers of deposition material that looks different, and also, much more thin than the top layer of sandstone I mention. This is amazing. Because i saw another video, by another explorer, who visited canyons in what I suppose it is Montana or Idaho. And Lo and behold, the VERY SAME thick sandstone, on top of other layers, of about the same thickness, several dozen foot, over multi layers below, shown in the wall of the cliff. And this layer of homogeneous material (one color, no evidence or more layers, just one!) is on top of the cliff. This means it is geologically more recent than those thin layers below. I thought: what kind of cataclysmic event caused the deposition of such huge amount of material? The layer is for everyone to see. In front of your nose, and yet nobody seem to notice it. I hope the author of this video will read my comment and give his opinion, because I believe nobody has yet studied it (IMHO, I am not a geologist).

I e often wondered if there was not as much water on the planet before the flood. What if it was a moon size ice comet that dissipated in the atmosphere and greatly and suddenly increased the amount of water on the planet.
